Most of my artistic portfolio is made on medium- and large format film. The limitations of using 4x5 sheet film presents a challenge. It slows down the process; I must think carefully about every frame, consider the composition carefully and direct my models before pressing the shutter. Whilst I restrict myself with regards to my tools and materials, I also allow myself to improvise and to collaborate with my subjects. I value my models input and allow them to be themselves, shaping their bodies into a strong, classic and balanced composition. The choice of black and white film adds a graphic simplicity to the images. My colour work is made with digital camera’s.

As a portrait photographer I am drawn to faces and eyes. Nude photography lets me add another dimension: skin and curves. I tend to find beauty in imperfection, retouching of my analog images is limited to dust and scratches. The models remain as they are: Beautiful in their own way. Although some of the images have a touch of sensuality, none of them are meant to be erotic in any way.

The cost of creating fine art photography can be high. Studio space has to be rented, models need to be payed and film has to be bought and processed.Any contributions will be used for creating new work, pay models and building a new darkroom.I will add more limited edition prints on this page over the next few weeks.
